Horseradish - GONE

[Don McCombs]

Dug and processed some horseradish root yesterday. If you’d like your own patch, I have some ready-to-plant crowns that I’ll ship to the first person that PM’s me with their mailing address.

Will probably process horseradish in a day or two.

Warm for this time of year. 2 inches rain this week. And, darn it, grass will need mowing in another week.

Was going to dig a few yesterday but it rained all day. Might get a few roots tomorrow. mini-hoe is ready to dig!

Curious as to early spring harvesting of HR. I have a nice patch that I often forget about and my parents always harvested in the late fall.

 

[Don McCombs]

I think either time is suitable.

 

[SONNY]

fall is best but either time works. in the fall its stronger, -- spring has a slight "green taste" to it but still great!! lol!! Any month with an "R" in it is good!

 

[Don McCombs]

When I dig in the Spring, I only do it before the new leaves start to emerge from the crown. When I dig in the Fall, it is after a heavy frost when the leaves have died back.

Ha....so horseradish is the same as oysters....on in R months!!

 

[Eugene]

I harvest horseradish any time I need more. I have two plots, always have plenty growing.

Don's horseradish is good stuff. I have a plot from a crown he gave me maybe 10 years ago.
